Ford Mondeo Finally Coming To Malaysia In November

Remember that very handsome Ford you saw in the James Bond movie Casino Royale? If you have wanted one ever since catching that scene, your chance is coming because Sime Darby Auto ConneXion will finally be importing Ford Mondeo into Malaysia in November. If you have not watched that movie, then know that Mondeo has won multiple awards, and is highly regarded by motoring journalists around the world.

Fully imported from Genk, Belgium, Mondeo will be powered by a 161-hp 2.3-litre Duratec engine paired to a six-speed Durashift automatic transmission. British Motoring magazine Auto Express once described Mondeo as “Ford's finest ever car”, therefore setting expectations extremely high for this large family car, which will be competing in the D-segment against cars such as Honda Accord and Toyota Camry. Mondeo's success in Malaysia will boil down to pricing, however, and that is something to be revealed next month.

When the euphoria of test-driving that branded, super-expensive sports car dies down, he just goes home in his less-than-glamorous ride.
